“Places remember events” – James Joyce

Dublin remembers its mythic past. The entire city sits on Viking remains deeply buried. O’Connell street, The Custom House and the Four Courts remember the 1916 events when the Irish were at war. Temple Bar streets covered with in crusted bottles of beer’s caps testify of people drinking habits. Past events can be erased on its city walls, hidden below a fresh new paint or a new place name, but Dublin will still remember.

Impressions of Dublin #1

Over the coming months we are going to be publishing a series of guest posts entitled “Impressions of Dublin”. The guest blogers are a mix of non Irish, who have decided to make Dublin their home and Irish expats, who have gone further afield. They will be posting their own unique perceptive on what makes Dublin, Dublin and what it means to them.

Our first guest blogger is Dina Malone. Dina has lived in Russia and Israel she has been living in Dublin for the past 3 years. She works as a designer, you can view her work here.
